Diakomichalis calls for immediate security measures for the Windmills of Chrysocheria
Municipal councilor Dimitris Diakomichalis has sent a formal letter to the Mayor of Kalymnos, Yiannis Mastrokoukos, urging the immediate protection of the historic Windmills of Chrysocheria, following the recent official handover of the restoration project to the Municipality.
Diakomichalis stresses the need for fencing, surveillance cameras, and a dedicated guard who will both protect the site and be trained in the operation of the mechanism inside the first windmill, which is intended to function and grind grain.
“I am not giving instructions, but based on the experience of the destruction of the Castle of Chorio, such a situation must not be repeated, because the responsibilities will be enormous,” he notes.
He concludes by emphasizing that Kalymnos’ cultural heritage must be safeguarded with immediate and concrete measures.
